Mark Twain...Explore, Dream, Discover.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than the ones you did do.


So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.

Swing Weight - Is It Important?

Swing Weight? A friend who is a very good golfer once asked me what is the swing weight of a certain club and I drew a complete blank. I have since talked to many people about swing weight and few knew the meaning much less the significance of it. So, I embarked on a journey of discovery both theoretical and practical. I have even spoken to club fitters (or maybe some are not club fitters, they just change shafts and grips). So What is Swing Weight? Swing Weight is an expression of a club in terms of its feel, its head weight in relation to the entire weight of a club and its performance based on the timing of its release. It is liken to say lifting a bag of rice and that weight is thought of as the resistance in being lifted. That is the equivalent to the swing weight of a golf club and its resistance in being lifted and then swung in a circular movement. In technical terms, it is called the "Moment of Inertia". When a club gets longer, you will find that it fee...

TaylorMade Rescue Hybrid

If I say I have tried and tested many hybrids, you better believe me. Over time, I have experimented with although at different times and with different models - Adams, Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, Nickent, Ping, Srixon, TaylorMade and several others. Why the heck I do that with hybrids? You see a long time ago some gaseous matter caused a huge explosion and long after the Earth has cooled down and while still spinning, some wise guys invented the fairway woods. While the fairway woods can be handy as a second driver off the tee on tighter fairways, it is not as easy to use off the deck. Meantime, the longer irons isn't of much help as they are longer and have less perimeter weighting for more consistent result. While Gary Adams who founded TaylorMade was making an invention of adding metal to wood soon after some one created the golf hybrid which was meant to replace long irons but by adding perimeter weighting to the back of these clubs to be more forgiving, provide an ...

Pasir Ris Fish Farm

Image
As of now in December 2011, Bangladesh and Myanmar became the 96th and 97th countries to have accessed my blog. Three more to a century. I'll be a good global citizen. When I can't go to the mountain, the mountain must come to me. Thanks to the Internet. I didn't know Singapore has so many fish farms just for ornamental fish alone! From Sungei Tengah, Kranji, Pasir Ris to Selatar you have got them all, each one is the same yet different. They will have their Arowana, guppy, Luo Han, etc. but not every decor, variety of species is the same. I jsut checked this one out at Pasir Ris and they even have a small farm for "foul play". They have ducks at a pond. Or geese roaming around. Then chickens on a roof top. Money for nothing and chicks for free. Here is Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTP2RUD_cL0&ob=av2e http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlPjxz4LGak   (Live) The usual Koi (not the bubble tea type). Koi...
